Empanadillas are the smaller version of Empanadas. They admit almost any filling so there are a good solution to get rid of leftovers.

I like the exotic touch of Fennel seeds on these ones.

The pastry is quite easy to make and I don’t recommend you to use puff pastry or shortcrust…it is not the same. You could also use butter instead of Olive Oil, the same pastry used for the Torta Pascualina.

If you have any extravagant ideas for Empanadillas fillings please let me know. I will be happy to try them!
